We realise that circumstances can change and that from time to time bookings may need to be changed or cancelled.

 

All monies paid are non-refundable unless the property can be re booked for the same rental period. Then the booking fee will be refunded will be refund minus a $500.00 cancellation and administration fee. If your booking was a non-Peak time, the option to transfer your booking to another date may be offered.

 

Bookings are made in 'good faith' but may be subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances outside of our control. Pura Vida Central Coast does not accept responsibility where such circumstance arise.  Every reasonable endeavour will be made to offer alternative accommodation should this occur.

Covid-19

We are all in this together!

If official state or federal government travel restrictions prevent you from travelling we will refund your booking in full.

If there are no official restrictions I think that normal cancellation fees would apply. If you were to cancel (as early as possible) due to other personal reasons and we can re book the dates then we would process a full refund minus the cancellation fee. I have it listed as $500 however this is primarily to cover people who pay by credit card as we cannot refund the fees already charged to us and a small amount of administration.

Payments

Our preferred method of payment is electronic funds transfer (EFT).  

 

We also accept payment by Credit Card (MasterCard and Visa). Please note: payment by Credit Card is subject to a 2.9% surcharge.

STR Code of Conduct

On 18th December 2020, the NSW Department of Fair Trading's new Code of Conduct became law. The code creates new minimum standards of behaviour and new requirements for all participants including booking platforms, hosts and guests. The new laws require hosts to provide all guests with a copy of the Code of Conduct.
